Many Halo fans say that District 9 is a cover up for the Halo moive...this is a lie. Neill Blomkamp was going to be the director of the Halo movie after Peter Jackson gave him the rights to the film. However Neill Blomkamp then announced the Halo movie as dead. There still is going to be a Halo movie that is if Neill Blomkamp passes the test. District 9 is going to be a test for Blomkamp to see if he is the right guy for the Halo movie which he probably is.
